Michael is an artist and architect who has also studied industrial and stage design and jewellery making. His work involves ongoing consideration of spaces, forms, inhabitation and the poetic – encompassing buildings, public art, dance, theatre, jewellery, and designs for lights and darkness – and he also coaches architects in professional practice and human and leadership skills. Michael seeks to expand the nature and boundaries of his projects through cross-disciplinary practice in a way that is critical and constructive. He believes that the joy of art should be integral to all cultural domains and bring vitality to people’s lives, even when it colours outside the lines. Michael lives and works on the unceded land of the Gadigal and Wangal peoples of the Eora Nation.
